Author Description

This accessible and well-illustrated text concentrates on the biological and functional principles to be followed in designing partial dentures. This book is written in the context of a developing country and so does not dismiss the acrylic resin-based partial denture as a mere 'temporary appliance', as is so often done in conventional texts. Instead the author emphasises that if the biofunctional principles, as explained here, are applied, excellent prostheses will be the result -- whatever materials are used in their construction.
